    I have read the books but sadly have only watched the first and second episodes, I keep meaning to go back.

    I do seem to remember die hard fans being rather upset by some changes. I didn’t mind because I don’t think you could ever do a completely faithful adaptation and still keep your average Jo tuning in.

    As a massive Philip K. Dick fan I was also a huge fan of The Man in The High Castle adaptation and folks hated that one, so…

      Oh there’s a lot to upset fans who want a ‘truuuuuue’ adaptation - butthurt boys gotta butthurt and may they choke on the mighty sideburns of asimov - but the way they’ve done it actually ties into a lot of book elements in a beautiful mirror image. Bit beyond what you’ve watched, which is mostly exploring the events that were timeskipped in the book post-trial. Keep at it, it’s gorgeous

      The Dreams of Electric Sheep episodes were pretty fun IMO.
